Knowledge based optimization
Keywords:
complex systems, multi-objective optimization, fuzzy logic, modal logic, multi-valued logicAbstract
Optimization theory has advanced considerably during the last three decades, as illustrated by a vast number of published books, surveys, and papers concerning this subject. However, for optimization of complex systems that may not be modeled exactly by Ludwig von Bertalanffy's general system theory, we may need a new philosophy based on rather non-conventional logics. It is represented bellow.
